Section outline

    • This document enables the registration of Object IDentifiers (OIDs) for alerting information, i.e., content included in alert messages or otherwise associated with the activity of alerting. The Registration Authority, World Meteorological Organization (WMO), maintains these OIDs and accepts requests through WMO Members for the assignment of additional OIDs for information objects relevant to alerting. This document specifies rules for the registration of all such OIDs subordinate to the alerting OID arc administered by WMO. Also available in other languages here

    • The international Register of Alerting Authorities was set up by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). Each WMO Permanent Representative (PR) maintains entries for their nation. The PR represents the entire nation and should register all nationally recognized alerting authorities. The Register is maintained by the WMO Public Weather Services Delivery (PWSD) programme.
